Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 962 - 960: There Aren’t That Many If-Onlys
Upon hearing the Ginsengfruit speak, Xuan Chu, who previously felt a sense of familiarity with this strange young man, immediately widened his eyes.
He looked at the Ginsengfruit in shock, his tone full of disbelief: "You are the Ginsengfruit!!!"
The Ginsengfruit was also dumbfounded by this statement, as he was curious why Xuan Chu only had a minor scratch.
Now both sides started comparing notes and felt there was something significant about each other!
Xuan Chu quietly took out Er Dan, a sheepish smile appearing on his face.
"If I’m not mistaken, it seems I’ve taken advantage of Er Dan, making it shrink a bit too."
Yun Ran, sitting in a wheelchair, was one of those very familiar with Er Dan. A single glance revealed it had indeed become smaller.
At this moment, everyone was brainstorming.
"So, the Heavenly Dao Origin absorbed by Er Dan is of the same origin as the Heavenly Dao operating in this independent world, which is why the Heavenly Dao didn’t reject you?"
Yun Ran felt a bit wronged by his injuries, had he known earlier...
Ah, there’s no knowing things in advance.
The Ginsengfruit reached out to take Er Dan, turning it over and over, realizing it was indeed smaller, and the little creature inside the eggshell wasn’t as lively as before.
The Little Paperman also hurried over. In the past, it had viewed Er Dan as a younger sibling.
Seeing it now, aside from familiarity, there was also heartache over Er Dan’s weakening.
The Little Paperman looked towards the sky with some resentment: "Since you’re of the same origin, why be so stingy!"
Right after the complaint, the sky rumbled with thunder again.
Xuan Chu once again clearly sensed the dissatisfaction and warning from this world’s Heavenly Dao.
The Little Paperman, initially puffed with anger, hurriedly flew back to Yun Ran’s side for protection upon hearing the Heavenly Dao’s warning.
Feeling slightly wronged: "Master~"
Xuan Chu watched the Little Paperman’s obvious sycophancy, finding it somewhat amusing, but more so surprising.
He knew Yun Ran’s Life Chart, and this independent world’s Heavenly Dao had the same origin as the previous world’s Heavenly Dao Origin.
Therefore, this world’s Heavenly Dao likely wouldn’t favor Yun Ran, whose Life Chart was despised by the Heavenly Dao.
Yet now, the Heavenly Dao merely issued a few warnings without striking down with Heavenly Thunder, which was a bit odd.
With these thoughts, Xuan Chu asked the question he had in mind: "Didn’t the Heavenly Dao use to enjoy pursuing and striking you? Why does it seem to restrain itself now?"
Yun Ran glanced leisurely in the direction of the sky and replied, "It’s not that the Heavenly Dao has restrained itself, but I have a magic artifact that can shield my location from the Heavenly Dao.
Moreover, haven’t you noticed that the Heavenly Dao Origin in this world is very weak?
Presumably, maintaining the normal operation of this world has already consumed most of its energy."
If not, the Dark Masters of this world wouldn’t be so rampant, able to wantonly slaughter other ghosts and evils."
Yun Ran shared the information they had gathered in this world along with his own conjectures.
He continued, "You’re from Heavenly Dao Village, so you should know better than others that a complete Heavenly Dao shows no favoritism towards anything in the world.
There is no distinction between good and evil; the Heavenly Dao only cares about maintaining the balance of world operation.
Now, these Dark Masters’ actions show a tendency towards monopoly, and an imbalance of power in one faction won’t yield good results."
Xuan Chu looked at Yun Ran in some awe, evidently not expecting Yun Ran to express such sentiments so calmly.
In the past, he couldn’t understand why the predecessors of Heavenly Dao Village would always break up with friends they met while training outside.
Until he himself interacted with people from the outside long enough to deeply understand that everyone has their own standpoint.
Yet between people, there exists true emotions.
For example, his relationship with Yun Ran was quite good now, even risking great danger to find Yun Ran.
If not for Er Dan, Xuan Chu’s injuries might not be any lighter than Yun Ran’s.
However, even so, if someday Yun Ran’s stand was contrary to Heavenly Dao Village’s.
Xuan Chu would act like the other predecessors of Heavenly Dao Village and draw his sword against Yun Ran.
"You..."
At that moment, Xuan Chu was at a loss for words to express the shock in his heart, but then he let go.
If Yun Ran weren’t broad-minded and transparent enough, they likely wouldn’t have become life-and-death friends.
Still, when he thought about diverging from Yun Ran in the future, it felt like it would be his greatest regret.
Xuan Chu felt somewhat sentimental; the former him would never have believed he’d dare to be so sentimental one day.
Who knew, Yun Ran just gave him a sidelong glance.
"What, you want to say you didn’t expect me to be so understanding and fair?"
Xuan Chu opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say, so he just nodded.
With a gentle sigh, Yun Ran replied, "That’s because you haven’t seen much yet, most Xuan Sect people you’ve encountered so far act for their own interests.
Truly righteous Xuan Sect people are rare, yet these are just the basic requirements at our Qingfeng Temple.
Qingfeng Temple respects all life, except for those who are evil beyond redemption who cannot be saved or converted, they are disposed of quickly.
As for the rest, if there’s a chance to guide them towards good, people from Qingfeng Temple will do their best to spare their lives.
Of course, sparing their lives is based on them being controlled.
If they exhibit any anomaly, they will be swiftly exterminated without leaving any risks.
There’s no case where saving one life ends up causing harm to more lives.
The prohibitions at Qingfeng Temple are established with this in mind; once we decide to purify someone (or something). 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Then the respective karma also falls on the disciples of Qingfeng Temple.
This is why some predecessors of Qingfeng Temple achieved perfect merit and became immortals, while others died unjustly by association!"
Xuan Chu had seen the prohibitions on Yun Ran from Qingfeng Temple, so he immediately understood what Yun Ran was saying.
So this is the path of Qingfeng Temple, a path of entering the fray personally!
Success brings perfect merit, failure results in the soul being scattered!
No wonder Yun Ran’s Life Chart is so poor; others with such a Life Chart would’ve had wild grasses growing over their graves long ago.
Yet Yun Ran always manages to turn danger into safety, which isn’t merely due to good luck.
Presumably, the path Qingfeng Temple embodies is the key factor shielding Yun Ran.
Qingfeng Temple disciples’ training might not just cultivate vision but also the ability to make decisions bearing karma.
